Overview E2 Systems Engineering consolidated the CAD/PAD branches. The Weapons/Aircraft Systems Branch (E24) and CAD/PAD PIP/R&D Branch (E26) were consolidated into the Technology Development Branch (E24) Four teams were set up within E24; PADs, PIP/R&D, Qualification & Second Source, and Weapon Systems JSF, Counter-Measures and T-6 CFIS-B are sub-teams Team leads provide technical and programmatic oversight and experience to their team members "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 3
Background Team association is determined by the project: PAD Development & PIP, Catapults, USRM, CJRM CAD Development & PIP, Cartridges, CADs, GODs Qual & Second Source, CADs and PADs Weapons, full-up rounds IPT s JSF, ejection seat, TRS, FPS Counter-Measures T-6 CFIS-B "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 4
Qualification & Second Source The QSS Team handles: Team Projects transitioning from the CAD PIP/R&D development phases Sponsor Acquisition Category (ACAT) programs: P-8A, UCLASS, CH-53K, AH-64 UEES, VH-92, V-22 Second source projects Second source unsolicited proposals Qualification of all CAD/PAD devices except for weapon system applications Responsible for generating service release documents "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 5
New Service Release Process E24 follows the Naval Systems Engineering Technical Review (SETR) process Naval SETR Handbook approved for public release NAVSEAINST 5000.9 / NAVAIRINST 5000.24 Finalized internal Service Release Process document provides regimented guidance for this process Compliance matrices used to establish qualification test requirements Qualification by similarity requirements were previously distributed to contractors & vendors "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 6
SETR Process System Requirements Reviews (SRR-I/SRR-II) Submit CAD/PAD specifications to various subsystems IPTs Integrated Baseline Review Assesses risks & establishes performance baselines System Functional Review Assesses baseline and readiness to begin functional allocations Preliminary Design Review Assesses allocated baseline and readiness to begin detailed design Design Verification Testing Verifies the design is mature prior to entering CDR Critical Design Review Assess product baseline and supports design readiness review in Engineering Manufacturing Development phase pre-ms C "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 7
Test Readiness Review SETR Process (2) Assesses readiness to begin Development Test and Evaluation DT&E / qualification testing Flight Readiness Review Assesses readiness to initiate and conduct flight testing Operational Test Readiness Review Assesses readiness to proceed into Operation Test & Evaluation (OT&E) System Verification Review Assesses compliance with functional baseline Design Certification Review An internal review of test results before approving qualification status in support of Type II releases. "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 8
SETR Process (3) Production Readiness Review (PRR) Assesses readiness to enter production, conducted after CDR prior to build of qualification hardware Physical Configuration Audit Assesses as-delivered hardware for compliance with product baseline in support of full-rate production decision "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 9
We conduct The Technology Development Branch typically conducts: SRRs PDRs CDRs PRR TRR DCR FCA PCA Process reviews Supports all other SETR reviews "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 10
Review design Support/conduct CDR Qualification/Second Source (QSS) Process Develop compliance matrix and assess required testing Establish qualification test requirements Mil-Specs Contractor Prime Item Development Specifications Tailor qualification requirements Develop/review qualification test plan/procedures Design test fixtures, as needed Acquire test assets, as needed Coordinate environmental testing Coordinate functional testing Coordinate sub-system testing "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 11
QSS Process Prepare/review qualification test report Conduct Design Certification Review Obtain supporting documents and service releases Type I, safety of handling & installation Type II, qualified Prepare procurement technical data package Cataloging/NSN/DODIC/Packaging Obtain DOD explosive hazard classification Obtain Naval IM certification Obtain ESD/HERO certification Prepare Demil plan Prepare drawing package Prepare procurement/design specifications Request Type IIIA or IIIB release to service (intent/final) "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 12
New Qualifications Qualification programs are generate from several sources; Sponsor ACAT Programs PIPs transitioned internally to E24 or from contractor s PIPs Solicited/unsolicited second source efforts Second sources Unsolicited proposals Cost-benefit analysis Risks Considerations are: Production concerns High cost items Obsolescence concerns Second sources are initiated upon generating an acceptable business case. Cost sharing, Contractor hardware/government testing "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 13
Current QSS Projects Currently there were 35 projects in FY15 Category # QSS Projects Transitions from PIP 17 ACATs 5 Second Sources 8 Miscellaneous 2 Obsolescence 1 IPT s qualifications are conducted by the IPTs. JSF F-35A/B/C T-6A/B/D "Approved for Public Release, distribution unlimited." 14
Future Programs Working with various program offices on future programs VH-92, next Presidential Helicopter Program CH-53K Heavy Lift Replacement UCLASS AH-64 UEES Looking to the future..
